I'd be be more interested in a pig tail to relocate the ECU with the
existing wiring harness.  Anyone see any problems with this?

      I am currently in the final stages of development for the 1.9L digijet
harness.  I am looking at starting production sometime after the first of
the year.  I would definitely be able to add some extra length in order to
relocate the ECU.  Once I get into production and get everything ironed out,
I can look into the modifications needed for relocating the ECU wherever you
desire.  Let me know if you have any questions, otherwise I will get back in
touch with you when the digijet harness is ready to go.

      could put it on the list.  It would also be wonderful if I could get
an idea of what kind of quantities there would be a demand for.

      Thanks,
      KYLE
